Elicit
Elicit (Ought PBC) · An AI research assistant that reads scientific literature and shows its citations.
For anyone doing literature review this term, a tool built specifically to cite its sources sentence by sentence is worth knowing about before defaulting to a general chatbot.
What it does
An AI research assistant that searches over 100 million academic papers, extracts and summarizes findings, and answers questions about a paper or set of papers with citations traceable to the source sentence.
Why Nakoda noticed it
Nakoda includes Elicit because citation-traceable research tools are rarer than they should be, given how much AI research reading has quietly become normal. Verify, don't just summarize, is a genuinely different design goal from a chatbot.
